About
Immerse yourself into French culture with the comfort and safety net of a host family.
You'll give back by tutoring English to the children of your host family 15 hours per week. The rest of your time is free to explore, take a class, hang with the family, or take side trips. Tutoring can take place through informal activities and conversation OR through formal lessons. You'll work out the specifics with your hosts but generally a combination of both works well. Placements are mostly around Paris or in the south of France.
This is a volunteer and unpaid experience but your housing and meals are included! We charge a program fee for the service of matching you with a host family, pre-departure support, and in-country support available on an as-needed basis and provided by our French partner. Alumni opportunities such as language exchanges are also available.
I believe there are age restrictions. The age span they are looking for is 18-30 years old. I don’t remember the reason why, but there was a particular reason for this age restriction. If you contact the agency I’m sure they can help answer that.
